Hi all, Here is a link to an article linking the Great Debaters to high ed and intercollegiate debate:
http://insidehighered.com/views/2008/01/07/odonnell I've penned two other opinion pieces on the subject which might also interest you: Christmas premiere: May life follow art http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2007/122007/12222007/343063 Sunday Forum: Pittsburgh’s Debaters http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07364/845125-109.stm I would encourage others to use these as models for stimulating discussion of debate in your regional and local communities. I've been amazed at the response to the PPG piece. We'll never have a better opportunity to promote debate! Best, Tim Timothy M.
